In this episode the boys discuss...

Spencer Jones has impressed with his performance in minor league baseball.

The chemistry between Juan Soto and Aaron Judge is a positive sign for the Yankees.

Re-signing Juan Soto should be a priority for the Yankees.

The Yankees' outfield depth is a good problem to have.

The stability of the Yankees' roster is a welcome change.

Luis Gil has shown promise in his performance.

Predictions for the upcoming season's bullpen are made. The addition of players like Verdugo and Stroman brings a new feel to the team and a welcome shake-up.

Unleashing Aaron Judge's emotions and allowing players to play looser could lead to better performance.

Possible expansion cities include Nashville, Charlotte, Oklahoma City, and New Orleans.

The uncertainty of Juan Soto's contract situation adds to the all-in mentality of the team.

The conversation highlights the excitement and potential of an all-in year for the Yankees.
